Your Trusted Physiotherapy Partner in Kew East
MD Health was founded in 2002 by Managing Director and Senior Physiotherapist Michael Dermansky with a mission to address the root causes of injuries rather than providing temporary pain relief. Our team of qualified physiotherapists, exercise physiologists, and osteopaths specialises in clinical exercise, Pilates, and tailored strength training programs designed to improve long-term health outcomes. We pioneered the MD Health Way, a proprietary method combining thorough assessments, hands-on treatment, and progressive exercise regimens to address individual needs.With over 20 years of experience and four locations across Victoria and Queensland, we offer free Full Body Assessments to create customised treatment plans. Our 13-week program focuses on building core stability, strength, and conditioning, supported by regular reassessments to ensure optimal progress. We serve clients with complex injuries, pregnancy-related conditions, and those seeking general strength training, maintaining a commitment to evidence-based practices and continuous professional development.

Services
Clinical Pilates
Clinical Pilates combines targeted exercises with manual therapy to improve core stability, mobility, and pain management. Tailored programs address individual injuries or chronic conditions, using equipment-based and mat exercises supervised by allied health professionals. Ideal for post-rehabilitation recovery and long-term strength development.
Exercise Physiology
Accredited Exercise Physiologists design programs to enhance physical function and manage chronic conditions. Sessions focus on resistance training, cardiovascular health, and functional movement patterns, adapting exercises for clients with complex injuries or post-surgical needs.
Osteopathy
Osteopathy at MD Health involves hands-on techniques to treat musculoskeletal pain and improve joint mobility. Practitioners assess biomechanical imbalances, using soft tissue manipulation and joint mobilisation to address issues like back pain, headaches, and sports injuries.
Pregnancy Exercise
The PregXercise program offers safe, supervised exercise for pregnant women, focusing on pelvic floor strength, core stability, and posture. Led by physiotherapists, sessions reduce back pain, prepare the body for labour, and support postnatal recovery through low-impact Pilates-based movements.
Physiotherapy
Physiotherapy services address acute injuries and chronic pain through evidence-based treatments. Initial consultations include comprehensive assessments of affected and surrounding areas, followed by combined exercise and manual therapy to restore function and prevent re-injury.
